Architecture for Humanity is Caesars Entertainment's charity partner for Atlantic City Food and Wine Festival

ATLANTIC CITY, New Jersey -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City is proud to announce Architecture for Humanity’s "Restore the Shore" Fund as the exclusive charity partner at the Atlantic City Food and Wine Festival’s fifth annual celebration, which takes place Thursday, July 25th and continues through Sunday, July 29th. Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City will donate $1 for every ticket sold during the four-day culinary and spirit festival to Architecture for Humanity, with all of the proceeds going directly to the "Restore the Shore" Fund.

Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City’s signature festival, which sells out annually and is the leading food and wine festival in the market, will feature a star-studded roster of the world’s most renowned culinary experts and TV personalities, including Robert Irvine, Rocco DiSpirito and The Neelys. Ticket sales from the festival will help aid some of the 100,000+ people who benefit annually from projects completed by Architecture for Humanity. From conception to completion, Architecture for Humanity manages all aspects of the design and construction process for projects benefiting those affected by Hurricane Sandy.

“We are humbled to be partnering with Architecture for Humanity’s ‘Restore the Shore’ Fund, a cause that is so near to our hearts after the devastation brought on by Hurricane Sandy last October,” says Danny Brockdorf, Regional Vice President of Marketing for Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City. “Giving back to the local community while visitors and loyalists alike come to Atlantic City for a weekend of great food, wine, spirits and all-round Jersey fun is what we are all about.”

"We're very excited about this partnership with Caesars Entertainment,” said a representative from Architecture for Humanity. “At the Food and Wine Festival, attendees from near and far will be introduced to the incredible compassion of New Jerseyans helping one another rebuild, and can celebrate that Jersey sense of community we've encountered on a daily basis there."
